Party update got pushed back to tomorrow.


Jumped in on Xbone at the weekend, some great deals around in the UK. I've not renewed Xbox Live yet so I'm not playing anything online atm - will probably renew for Titanfall.. my tag is FrakEarth for when I do btw.

picked up FIFA, Plants V Zombies and Forza. Checked out the Dead Rising 3 demo -- what else is good? Ryse worth checking out?

Ryse is good, but its short and you can finish it if you rent or bum it from a MATE.

Dead Rising 3 is great. I spent $100 on it ($60 + $40 DLC).

Max is nice and simple fun. Straight forward.

Crimson Dragon is decent.

Ryse is short and sweet.

Yeah Ryse is great to play through, not necessarily to own though.  If you like racing Forza is great too (I think that goes without saying) and +1 for DR3. 

They apparently lost my xbone or something during the repair process so they offered me a free game.  I own all the ones they offered except Zoo Tycoon so I got a free download code for it.  Woot woot.

I have an Assassin's Creed 4 download code, if anyone is interested in buying it. Or trade it.

Would the code work in the UK? I might be interested in buying if so - for the right price like

Thanks, I'll see if I can borrow Ryse off someone. DR3 demo has me pretty much sold, but I'll check out the others as well

Fifa UK code worked for my friend's US account. I don't think there are any region restrictions on codes.

Free Forza 5 with Xbox ONE next week at select retailers.

http://majornelson.com/2014/03/06/coming-soon-purchase-xbox-one-in-the-u-s-and-get-forza-motorsport-5/

Gotta push that day on stock out before they can get retailers to bite on the Titanfall bundles. I still see Day One consoles at my local Best Buy. :lol

Mupepe

 :lol  the bad thing is that it was a mistake naming it Day One edition anyways.  With the nature of big warehouses and supply chains there was bound to be stock found somewhere (even if demand wasn't lackluster which makes the issue worse) and pushed out beyond "Day One" anyways.  Stupid decision for the image.

Rayman Legend is alright, feels like an expansion pack for Origins. Unfortunately, can't get 1000 due to two factors:

1 - Requires you to win a game that is for local play only (req. 2 controllers)

2 - Requires you to do daily/weekly challenges for almost 2 months

The music levels are awesome though.

I finally got around to playing zoo tycoon. At first I thought it would be a toss away game I didn't play after the first 20 minutes. It felt like a dumbed down version of the tycoon games on PC.  But its really pretty damn good. I had a 5 hour session last night. Around level 30 the game gets insanely strategic. I really like it. Reminds me of when I first discovered sim games and I would stay up all night trying to make my stupid patrons happy

Credit goes to a thread I just saw on CAG from user beefdongle (lol). I tried it and it works.

"Didn't see this on the front page. Add the Xbox One Titanfall bundle for $100 off online at the Microsoft Store Website. After adding to cart, use the promo code "1" as in the number.
 
Worked for me but unfortunately I already bought the bundle so passing this along."
 


I, too, already have the console. But this is a great deal for however long it lasts.

I did a search, but standing by for deletion...

You can use that promo code for anything in the store!

Fuck, Rayman Legends is an amazing game.

One thing that was unfortunate.  When checking the online world rankings, it had less than 50,000 people in it.  I wonder if that was just limited to Xbones and not all platforms :(

What to expect in this update preview

For those of you that participated in last month’s (1403) update preview, this preview wave will be a little different:

The 1404 update preview will run a bit longer than the 1403 preview. As a result, not all of the features listed below will be available in the first 1404 update. Some features will be enabled in 1404 updates that are rolled out later in the preview.

Some of the features listed below will be enabled outside of a console update. Keep an eye on the forums for announcements and information on when new features are made available.

What’s new in this release?
Game and app saves and updates. A game save progress bar will show you the status of your game saves. You will also be able to easily tell what games and apps are being updated or have been updated recently.
Friends improvements. Notifications will be added to see when favorites and friends sign in to Xbox Live. This actually was one of the most frequently requested features from the first preview wave and we made it a priority to include it in the April update. Also, friends who are in multiplayer will be identified in the friends list. We’ll also add the ability to view friends’ most popular apps.
Blu-ray 50 Hz video output support for content recorded at 50 Hz will resolve video playback issues some Xbox Live members in Europe are experiencing.
Kinect voice and motion improvements will continue to fine tune the quality and reliability of Xbox One commands.
Improved GameDVR video quality through compression algorithm improvements.
Updates to Xbox One device management to address issues controlling TVs, set top boxes, and receivers that our customers have reported.
New audio settings to tune how much volume is lowered when Kinect is used in communications.

The price of the content is crazy, 10 bucks for each pack?

Although TBH I forked out 800MSP for each of the Fallout 3 expansions back in 2008.

By the time I pick up a Bone, I'm hoping a GOTY edition will be available.

They're super short - padded by dumb collecting. Definitely not worth the asking price.

Just a heads-up but my day one controller started showing signs of controller drift yesterday while playing Titanfall. I tried it in other games and it was the same problem. The right analog stick would drift upwards. So I got in contact with Microsoft support and I just need to send mine in and they will send me a replacement controller. Just a post for anybody who may have the same issue.

So cloud-powered gaming is a serious game changer but Microsoft hasn't done a quality job talking about it publicly. I mean Forza 5 used it for Drivatars (it sucks) and Titanfall uses it for the server AI that helps players (sorta neat) but I don't think the public generally understands.

ANYWAYS, here's a tech demo that shows off a small example what's possible:

Xbox is getting the ability to upload to YouTube

Quote
Game DVR and Upload are among the most used apps on Xbox One. We know how important it is to be able to easily watch and share video clips, and starting tomorrow we’re rolling out an update to the YouTube app on Xbox One that integrates Game DVR and Upload with YouTube**, making it easier than ever to capture and share game clips with the world.

 Now, use Game DVR to capture epic gaming moments, edit them in Upload Studio, and, with the simple click of a button inside the YouTube app (look for My Uploads**), share them instantly to your YouTube channel. The updated YouTube experience also allows you to watch YouTube videos in Snap Mode, add individual YouTube videos to your Pins, earn Media Achievements, and add your YouTube channels to OneGuide for instant access to YouTube videos right next to your favorite TV listings or App Channels.

Got my xbox one controller from MS yesterday. It was weird. The new one didn't work at first. I was highly pissed. So I unplugged everything and let it sit for about 4 hours and then suddenly it worked.

Tonight, we will begin rolling out the next Xbox One system update. Again, I’d like to thank all of the Xbox Live members who previewed features with us and shared some of their feedback. Their input helped shape this system update, and we look forward to expanding our list of previewing Xbox Live members in the coming months.

Here’s the final breakdown of the features rolling out to Xbox One systems starting tonight and over the next few days:

Game and app saves and updates. A game save progress bar will show you the status of your game saves. You will also be able to easily tell what games and apps are being updated or have been updated recently.
Friends improvements. Notifications will be added to see when favorites and friends sign in to Xbox Live. This was one of the most frequently requested features, so we made it a priority to include it in this update. Also, friends who are in multiplayer will be identified in the friends list.
Kinect voice and motion improvements will continue to be fine-tuned for quality and reliability of Xbox One commands. For example, we’ve updated some of the gesture functionality to reduce false positives on non-hand objects triggering gesture commands.
Improved GameDVR video quality through compression algorithm improvements.
Blu-ray player supports 50 Hz video output for content recorded at 50 Hz. We’ll also be updating the Blu-ray Player app in the coming days to round out these improvements.
Controller and headset adaptor firmware updates will reduce audio static and improve wireless connectivity.
Silent reboot after system updates and system update on demand now available. If your console is in Instant On mode, the update will happen automatically and return to standby upon completion. This means you won’t need to power on your console after an update moving forward. If you want to take future updates when available without waiting for your console to do it on its own, we’ve added this option under system settings and you’ll be able to use it next update. It will only show as available when there is an update to take.
Friends Notifications
Thanks again for everyone’s feedback on particular features previewed these past few months and keep the feedback coming.

What I found out is you just need to unhook all cables and then hook em back up again. If you think I came up with that, no. It's on their support website and it works.

Yep. That's exactly how I got my controller to work.

After you unplug everything let it sit for awhile whatever problem you were having before seems to suddenly fix itself.
